[Verse 1]
I've been feeling this emptiness for some time
Tryna make do
But my world has been so crazy
Living without you
Now I'm a man and not ashamed to admit my faults
Now that I know
But the only thing that matters now
Is I shoulda never let you go

[Pre-Chorus]
So every night before I go to sleep
I pray
That the Lord would one day somehow
Send you back my way

[Chorus]
Baby, I miss you (oh yes I do)
I need to be back in your arms
I never stop loving you (oh yeah)
My heart is where you belong
Baby, I miss you (baby i)
Before heaven and earth pass away
Lord, please show me what to do
Tell me what to say
'Cause we've come too far to let it slip away
Whoa-oh-whoa
'Cause we've come too far to let it slip away

[Verse 2]
Couldn't understand many things in my life
How much you meant to me
Now I'm prepared to be everything
That a man is supposed to be
Mmm... I don't wanna be alone no more
Know that my heart can't take it
Not a day has passed
Since you've been gone
That I thought that I could make it
Ah baby

[Pre-Chorus]
So every night before I go to sleep
I pray
That the Lord would one day somehow
Bring you back my way

[Chorus]
Baby, I miss you
I need to be back in your arms
(bring it back to me, baby)
I'll never stop loving you
My heart is where you belong
Baby, I miss you
Before heaven and earth pass away
Lord, please show me what to do
Tell me what to say
'Cause we've come too far to let it slip away

[Bridge]
Oh, baby
Don't know that else to say or do
It's hard to get through every night and every day
Knowing I let you walk away
It's killing me inside
Feelings so strong I can't hide
So Lord
Help me get through these trying times
I'll do anything to have you back in my life

[Chorus]
Baby, I miss you
I need to be back in your arms
I'll never stop loving you
(Never stop loving you, no)
My heart is where you belong
(Where you belong)
Baby, I miss you (Baby, I miss you)
Before heaven and earth pass away
Lord, please show me what to do
Tell me what to say
'Cause we've come too far to let it...
Baby, I miss you
I need to be back in your arms
I'll never stop loving you
My heart is where you belong
Baby, I miss you
Before heaven and earth pass away
Lord, please show me what to do
Tell me what to say
'Cause we've come too far to let it...
Baby, I miss you

Boyz II Men is an R&B vocal quartet from Philadelphia who became the most successful pop group of the 1990s. They’re best known for their passionate ballads, including the number one hits “End of The Road,” “On Bended Knee,” and “I’ll Make Love To You.”

An early version of the group was founded by Nathan Morris in the mid 1980s while attending the Philadelphia High School for the Creative and Performing Arts, where he recruited students Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman, and Michael McCary. Singer Marc Nelson was also an early member, but left the group before their big break.

The group—who took its name from New Edition’s song “Boys To Men”—was discovered in 1988 after auditioning for New Edition’s Michael Bivins backstage at a concert. Bivins signed the group to his management company and secured them a contract with Motown Records.
